TEWKSBURY - It's been 50 years since Judith Cadorette was found murdered and police are hoping the anniversary will generate some new leads in the cold case.
Cadorette was 19 years old when she was found dead in the woods off the ramp from I-93 south to Route 133 in Andover on July 6, 1973. The road leads directly to Tewksbury where Cadorette was from.
